Pathfinder Chronicles: City Map Folio

A necessity of all civilized societies, cities are the pride of any nation and the mark of an empire’s power. By a city’s size and prosperity can the traveler note a kingdom’s health and power, by the architecture of its buildings its culture and arts, and by the words and actions of its citizens the strength of its spirit. No two cities are exactly alike, and in a world as diverse as Golarion, these differences are nowhere more apparent than in the city’s shape and the layout of its streets. This map folio presents six such cities, each in the format of a large, full-color 17" x 22" poster map. And while details on these cities are presented in Pathfinder Chronicles: Cities of Golarion, these maps can serve as beautiful additions to any fantasy roleplaying game.

Maps of the following cities are included in this folio:

Cassomir: The most significant port of the eastern Inner Sea region

Corentyn: A city perched on the edge of two seas and at the heart of every major trade route

Ilizmagorti: A tropical city of pirates and criminals ruled by the Red Mantis assassins

Nisroch: A stark place of shadows and cruelty where every citizen lives in fear

Vigil: A city-fortress and bastion against the ravening orc hordes of Belkzen

Whitethrone: A frozen metropolis of monsters founded by the witch queen Baba Yaga

Great Looking Maps! Wide Variety of City Terrains.

This is a beautiful collection of Golarion city maps. These are large handout style maps that the players can use, but do not show the specifics of any of the cities. If you're looking for street names and landmarks, you won't find any here. What you will find is a large complete map of the city that your PCs can use to navigate through the urban sprawl.

Geographically speaking, the cities are fairly spread out so you get one from Varisia, one from Ustalav, one from Irrisen, and so on and so forth. The variety of cities brings a variety of terrains and that's what makes these maps so useful. If you ignore the names of the cities, you can use these maps for any generic city that matches the terrain of the map.

Absolute Garbage

Remember Paizo's "Guide to Korvosa?" Remember how it had a beautiful (and might I add complimentary) city map that outlined city roads, basic districts, and major landmarks/buildings that were not found in the book? Remember how it's graphics, though not entirely great were decent due to the scale of the map to those graphics used? Remember how it was complimentary, but still acted as a useful map unto itself? Remember how it was good?

Well you won't find any of that in this product. The maps are completely blank of any text or font, making these maps completly useles in and of themselves. And considering Paizo is charging 16$ for these 6 maps, I will say that it is a major let down.

I do not care if this is supposed to compliment another joining product. The small maps given in "Cities of Golarion" not only look better, but they actually give some meaning to a jumbled up and large building by giving its name, you have pretty much made this product useless.

I am outraged that I have spent money on this product. This cheap product is a deal breaker between me and Paizo. From now on, I am going to do heavy research - which will no longer include forum chats on Paizo.com, and then if the product is sufficient, I shall wait until it is sold on Amazon or Ebay at a cheaper price. Paizo will no longer be getting any of my money because of this product.

Nice Maps!

I really like the maps in this folio. The colors and size of the maps make them a valuable addition to your game.
The only thing I wish that they had where text. Either, names of key places, buildings and roads or a numeric key for the map.
